I read your amazing book in two days! I can't count the number of times my boyfriend asked why I was laughing and/or crying. Thank you for this inspiring story!

Ellen, you become more of an inspiration each time....may we all have the courage, wisdom, and dedication to succeed so much in a lifetime! Already a fan....and much success! Much love, Brenda

When I brazenly walked up to the table where you and Lily were sitting I felt as 'at ease' as if I were with family. Thanks for your sense of humor and welcoming Spirit. When like minded Souls come together, indeed, the world can be changed for the good. Love, Buzz

Ellen, I am one of the fortunate few, who get to experience your books as you write them. You know that I can go on and on about how much your words move me. Yet, I want to share something closer to my heart. I look Catholic and so, even though I was born Jewish, it is something that never called to me. To my mother's horror, I hid my heritage and sought spiritual teachings from other religions. Little did I know that a writing group would change my life forever. As you would read each of your chapters to our group, you brought me to Israel; shared the journey of a Jewish girl who was unaware of her heritage; read about traditions and allowed me the freedom to discover my heritage. As Clouds Across the Sun evolved, my soul merged with a GOD that I've always known. My image of GOD really never changed--what changed was that I was humbled and claimed those aspects of me that had previously been discarded. I want to champion Clouds Across the Sun, like no ones business, because if the book can change someone like me, then I can't imagine how it will open up people's hearts--whether they are Jewish or not. When we understand the traditions, the sacredness and each other, new worlds become available to us all! Ellen, you are blessed. Your books are blessed, and you must deliver your message to the world! Blessings, Deborah Weed Author of The Luckiest Penny http://www.theluckiestpenny.com
